1969 BMW R69S

The 1969 BMW R69S is a two‐owner, triple numbers matching, serial number 663891, that was acquired by its owner in 2003, after a refurbishment by BMW dealer, Wolf BMW of Ailsa Craig, Ontario.  The last year of production for the R69S, only 321 examples were produced in 1969.  This motorcycle features  the sought‐after European trim and Earles leading‐link forks.  The bike is offered with a clean Ontario title.  Powered by a 42 HP, 593cc opposed twin, paired with a four‐speed transmission and a driveshaft, the bike  has accumulated 28,258 original miles.  The bodywork and the frame are finished in it’s original black with white pinstripes accenting the fuel tank  and  fenders.  Features  include  the  optional  factory  6.5  gal.  sport  tank  (with  storage  compartment),  optional deep BMW oil pan, Magura “Europa” bars, Denfeld solo saddle, Denfeld pillion saddle, factory  original side‐stand, a center stand, black rubber knee grips, street lighting with Hella bar‐end turn signals,  and Albert side mirrors mounted to the headlight nacelle, featuring the VDO speedometer.  Shouldered 18″ aluminum rims, running on Metzler tires, are laced with stainless steel spokes to hubs  with drum brakes. Suspension consists of an Earles leading‐link fork as well as twin shrouded Boge shocks  mounted to the swingarm on the left and the final drive housing on the right.  The  bike  is  in  excellent  running  condition,  featuring  several  minor  improvements  for  daily  running,  including a 12‐volt conversion, with a Sachse ZDG 3.12 Digital Ignition system.  All original 6V parts are included for an easy switch back for authenticity.  Lighting is upgraded to LED bulbs where applicable.  Meticulously maintained, regular service includes the following:
